So, quick background.
Mrs Scandal has a new job at a new practice (Veterinary) and the owner has given her an employment booklet with various strange and in my experience unreasonable sections that she is to adhere to, the one below being of main concern due to the value of some of the equipment that is used.
Can anyone tell me if the below section is enforceable?
“Any damage, missing cash /stock or equipment damage even caused by incorrect maintenance, is payable by the person caused the damage. If the management is not notified and no responsible person found the cost of repair or replacement will be deducted equally from all staff salary. Therefore each member of the staff is responsible for maintaining equipments and protect the stock or any property belonging to the business”
I understand the need to protect equipment but things malfunction, shit happens. Surely it is not enforceable that staff will have to pay for breakages out of wages?
Cheers
